Fred

I want to introduce you to Fred, he is the family dog here in Peru. He is a Peruvian Hairless Dog. This breed of dog have their origins in Peruvian pre-inca cultures. And because he is hairless he sometimes gets cold so has to wear a wee coat.

When I first met Fred I was bit scared as I have always been scared of wee dogs ever since I was 2 and chased up the garden and bitten by one. But as Fred and I are usually the only ones in the house we have become friends.

He is very acrobatic, especially when it comes to meal times and he is jumping up and down trying to get food from Rut-Maria and me. So I thought I would take a wee video of Freddy boy to show you to him and let you see his acrobatics for yourself.
